Table 1. Clusters of brain regions, which were activated more following pain than following non-nociceptive stimuli (Conjunction of CO2>H2S and CO2>Vanillin).

Left primary somatosensory cortex | 33 | −45 | −19 | 31 | 6.74 |

Left secondary somatosensory cortex | −45 | −10 | 22 | 6.72 |
The table contains the anatomic location of the voxels with highest voxel level t in the respective region of a 12-subject group analysis. Voxels are given at a threshold of p<0.05 family wise error (FWE) corrected. Coordinates are reported in the MNI space [mm].
